The National Federation of Cafe Presidents and the Restaurant Hope Emergency Countermeasure Committee held a press conference in front of the Seoul Central District Law on the 19th and said, "We file a lawsuit claiming a total of 1.2 billion won against the Korean government."



A total of 240 people participated in this lawsuit, including 170 cafe owners and 70 restaurant owners.



The association said, "We cooperated with the quarantine policy from November 23, last year, when the regulation began, but all that remains is a pile of debts that cannot be handled. "We are dividing the metropolitan area to separate the cafe industry," he criticized.



He added, "The disaster subsidies given as if to appease a crying child were not hope, but despair and anger."



The restaurant and hop non-competition committee also pointed out that "until now, when the group limit has reached 3 months, the government has only forced the self-employed to make sacrifices without on-site surveys." I did.



On the 14th of last month, 358 cafe owners belonging to the association filed a lawsuit against the government for a total of 1.8 billion won per person, 5 million won.
